"Reducing Total Operating Costs" with Komatsu Innovative Technologies

Komatsu's Hydraulic System and the NEW Diesel Engine reduce the Fuel Consumption

In order to minimize hydraulic loss and reduce the engine load, the new CX50 Series adopts the CLSS hydraulic system, a proven technology of Komatsu construction machines. The compact 3.3-liter engine features superior performance and achieves up to 20% less fuel consumption.

Komatsu tested data, comparison with FD50A-8. The results may vary depending on conditions.

Fuel consumption

The "CLSS" contributes to Low Fuel Consumption and High Productivity

The Hydraulic load is automatically detected and only the appropriate amount of oil is supplied via a variable displacement pump. This system eliminates the loss of hydraulic oil and reduces the engine load.

No loss of hydraulic oil results in;

Smooth operation of attachments
Lifting becomes possible at low engine RPM

Greatly Reduced Total Operating Costs (Diesel)

The sealed wet disc brakes can withstand about 10,000* hours operation without maintenance and eliminating frequent brake shoes replacements. The engine oil replacement interval has been extended for 300 hours, which reduces oil costs. The reduced maintenance costs and significant fuel saving provide a total operating cost reduction of about 14% over eight years of usage.

*A periodical check and oil replacement are necessary.

Komatsu genuine engine oil is recommended.

The Advanced Technology offers Reduced CO2 Emissions (Diesel)

The diesel models feature the SAA4D95LE-5-A engine in combination with the efficient CLSS hydraulic system, enabling them to reduce annual CO2 emissions by about 6.5 tons.

Komatsu tested data, Comparison with FD50A-8 model.
The CO2 emission coefficient is given in the Common Guidelines of the Japanese METI and MLIT (April 2006). The results may vary depending on conditions.

Anunual CO2 emissions

An Advanced Diesel Engine conforms to the Latest Emission Regulations

Low fuel consumption and low environmental impact are enabled by elimination of excess combustion and the use of the combined technologies of the high pressure common rail system, electronic control system, new combustion system and air to air charge air cooling system.
